By the editors · 2 min readBasil introduces a sharp, aromatic greenness that is both fresh and slightly peppery, creating an immediate herbal lift. The heart reveals a crisp, juicy pear note that softens the herbal edge with its watery, sweet fruitiness. Bulgarian rose and lily add a delicate floral transparency, weaving a subtle floral-herbal accord that feels airy and natural. Sandalwood in the base provides a minimal, creamy-woody anchor that supports the composition without overwhelming its lightness. The overall effect is a linear, refreshing scent that stays close to the skin with a clean, green-fruity character. Sillage is intimate, lasting around four to six hours, making it ideal for casual daytime wear in spring or summer.
